High-capacity media for data storage growth

Increased cartridge capacity helps reduce the amount of equipment, space and human intervention required for daily tape operations. In addition, it helps reduce the number of cartridges and time associated with backup and restore operations, thus helping lower operational costs.

With the IBM LTO Ultrium 4 800 GB Data Cartridge, IBM continues to focus on providing high quality, high-reliability tape technology for your business. Clients can further protect data by using this high capacity cartridge with LTO 4 encryption enabled drives. These cartridges continue to be part of a long line of IBM data cartridges designed to improve data integrity for organizations around the world.

The cartridges have been optimized and tested extensively for use in IBM LTO tape drives and libraries to help maximize performance, minimize data loss and improve data longevity. They are designed to withstand rigors of normal use in stand-alone and automated environments. Each cartridge is embedded with an LTO Cartridge Memory (LTO-CM) chip, which is designed to enable fast, simultaneous transfer of cartridge-dependent data with IBM tape drives during media load and unload cycles. The green cartridge color helps distinguish it from previous generations of IBM LTO Ultrium Media.
